I mean... I get how hard it is for people to accept. I really, really do. I don't know a childhood... hell, a LIFE, without MJ. And at the same time there is NO grey area, in my mind, about predators. So this shit suuuuuuuuuuuucks. It is absolutely heartbreaking.

But he was a predator. Clearly, deeply troubled, but a child abuser nonetheless and the efforts to take all of these scalpels to the allegations is the equivalent of us putting our fingers in our ears and turning up the volume on 'Off the Wall.' I'd almost feel better if folks said, "I know he was an abuser, but 'I Can't help It' is still my joint..."

I mean... I get it, but at some point we have to get right with ourselves and accept it.

I'm struggling with it but am on my way.
